When a user wishes to execute a trade, they can do so directly through the AMM. They swap one token for another, with the price of the trade being determined by the pool's algorithm.

AMMs operate through the utilization of liquidity pools. These pools serve as a repository where users can deposit their cryptocurrencies.

The prices of tokens in the pool are set algorithmically. The algorithm takes into account the ratio of assets in the pool to determine the price of each token.
